Some publications have shown good aesthetic results for scars through the early application of fractional CO2 lasers on elective surgery scars. The aim of this randomized, double‐blinded clinical trial was to compare the aesthetic quality of the scar from a group of patients submitted to super‐pulsed fractional CO2 laser applications (10,600 nm fractional CO2, set at a density of 20% and an energy of 10 mJ, a scanner of 03 × 03 mm, and a pulse repetition time of 0.3 seconds) in contrast with the other group that used only the silicone gel on the scar after plastic surgery.
